According to the SEC’s newly mandated policy, Alabama Football released its first availability report for Vanderbilt week on Wednesday evening.
The report features just two players: wide receiver Kendrick Law and linebacker Justin Jefferson, both of whom sustained minor injuries during the Georgia game.
Head coach Kalen DeBoer had earlier referred to Law as “day-to-day” during the SEC teleconference, and that status is confirmed as Law is listed as “questionable.” Jefferson, on the other hand, is listed as “probable.”
It’s positive news for Alabama fans, as DeVonta Smith and Red Morgan, who were injured in last week’s game, are not listed, nor are the three players who appeared on last week’s report.
Linebackers Qua Russaw and Jeremiah Alexander, along with running back Richard Young, were previously marked as “probable” but were downgraded to “questionable” before last Saturday’s game. Their absence from this week’s report indicates they are likely ready to play in Nashville.
Vanderbilt also released its availability report, which is more extensive:
– DL Zaylin Wood – Out
– CB Mark Davis – Out
– OL Grayson Morgan – Out
– EDGE Boubacar Diakite – Questionable
– WR Joseph McVay – Questionable
– WR Loic Fouonji – Probable
– S Dontae Carter – Probable
– DL Khordae Sydnor – Probable
Under SEC rules, schools facing a conference opponent must submit official availability reports on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, with a final report due no later than 90 minutes before kickoff.
